I will say again: I firmly predict that if Pete Buttigieg is the nominee he will make some gesture of opposition to trans rights as going "too far" as a ploy to seem moderate on LGBTQ issues.https://twitter.com/MagsVisaggs/status/1203044889585475590 …
I don’t care how Pete feels about chik-fil-a protestors, but going out of his way to distance himself from them sends a specific message. That message is “I’m one of the good ones.”

I’m no activist. I’m temperamentally not right for it. Sometimes activists make me cringe. But I don’t present myself as “one of the good ones”. It diminishes my dignity to cherry pick some dumb college kids & hold them up for ridicule to make myself look moderate.
